Thrown from His Cab and Killed.
The following is a most interesting and. in one respect, pathetic tale: Mr. J. Pope, 42 Ferrar Road, Btreatham, said: “Yes, poor chap, he Is gone, dead — horse bolted, thrown off his seat on his cab he was driving and killed—poor chap, and a good sort, too, mate. It was him, you see, who gave me the half-bottle of St. Jacobs Oil that made a new man of me. ’Twas like this: me and Bowman were great friends. Some gentleman had given him a bottle of St. Jacobs Oil which had done him a lot of good; he only used half the bottle, and remembering that I had been a martyr to rheumatism and sciatica for years, that I had literally tried everything, had doctors, and all without benefit, I became discouraged and looked upon it that there was no help for me. Well,” said Pope, “you may not believe me, for it is a miracle, but before I had used the contents of the half-bottle of St. Jacobs Oil Which poor Bowman gave me, I waa a well man. There it is, you see, after years of pain, after using remedies, oils, embrocations, horse liniments, and spent money on doctors without getting any better, I was completely cured in a few days. I bought another bottle, thinking the pain might come back, but it did not, so I gave the bottle away to a friend who had a lame back. I can’t speak too highly of this wonderful pain-killer.”
